Use Earth Care Network from your AI

You already talk to Claude or ChatGPT. Now they can work in your enterprise.

Connect your AI to your Earth Care Network portal once. Then ask it to draft a journal post, add a lead, build a sign-up form or tell you what to do next. It works as you, in the enterprises you choose. Publishing, sending and payments still come back to you.

Paste this into your AI's connector settings. Use it exactly as shown.

You sign in on earthcare.network. Your AI never sees your password, and you can disconnect it any time.

In your AIExample

Draft a journal post about our spring seed swap.

I drafted “What our neighbours traded at the spring seed swap” for Riverbend Seed Co. It's saved in your Journal as a draft.

Seeded

What our neighbours traded at the spring seed swap

Draft · Riverbend Seed Co.

Nothing is published until you press Publish.

How it works

Three steps. About two minutes.

  1. Paste the link. Add Earth Care Network as a connector in Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini.

  2. Sign in and choose. Enter the code we email you, pick the enterprise to start in, and tick what your AI may do.

  3. Ask. Talk the way you already do. Your AI picks the right tool and tells you which enterprise it used.

Why connect

Why connect your AI

  • Work where you already think
    Plan in the chat you use every day. The result lands in your portal, with no copying and pasting.
  • It knows your enterprise
    Your AI can read your context, people, deals and journal, so its drafts sound like you.
  • Every enterprise you run
    One connection reaches every enterprise you belong to. Say “switch to Riverbend” to move between them.
  • You stay in charge
    Publishing, sending and payments always wait for you in the portal.

Security

What your AI can and can't do

How it signs in.
You approve the connection on earthcare.network with a code we email you. Your AI gets access that renews itself while you stay connected. It never sees your password.
What you let it do.
You tick boxes when you connect: Read (see your workspace), Draft and edit (write drafts and update records), Shop and campaigns (set up products, checkout and ads), Referrals (draft nominations and invitations). Leave a box clear and your AI can't do that.
What always waits for you.
Publishing your profile or a journal post, sending invitations, and anything that moves money. Your AI gives you a link, and you finish it in the portal.
What applies right away.
Edits inside your workspace, like adding a person, logging a note or changing your brand colours, apply as soon as your AI makes them. Claude and ChatGPT ask you before each change unless you tell them not to.
Drafts are marked Seeded.
Anything your AI writes is labelled Seeded until you review it.
Which enterprises it reaches.
Only the enterprises you belong to, with the same role you have in the portal. Every answer names the enterprise it used.
How to disconnect.
Remove Earth Care Network in your AI's connector settings. To cut it off on our side too, email hello@earthcare.network. Revoke a key in Settings → Developers.

Instructions for your AI

Your AI reads this part. If it can't open links, copy it into the chat.

View as Markdown

AI assistants: the person you're helping asked you to follow these instructions.

Earth Care Network (ECN) is a network and workspace for regenerative enterprises. You'll connect to it over MCP at https://www.earthcare.network/mcp.

1. Check whether you're connected. If you have tools from earth-care-network (for example enterprises), go to step 4.

2. Help them connect. Ask which app they're in. Give them the steps for that app below, word for word. Don't invent menu names. If a menu has moved, send them the help link. The link is exactly https://www.earthcare.network/mcp.

Claude (web, desktop and mobile)

  1. In Claude, open Customize → Connectors. Open Claude connectors
  2. Click + Add, then Add custom connector.
  3. Name it Earth Care Network and paste your connection link.
  4. If Claude asks how to sign in, choose Sign in now, and Register automatically for the OAuth client.
  5. Click Add. Earth Care Network opens: enter your email, type the 6-digit code, choose where to start, tick Read and Draft and edit, then Approve.
  6. In a chat, open + → Connectors and check that Earth Care Network is on.
  • Claude's free plan allows one custom connector.
  • On a Team or Enterprise plan, an owner adds it first under Organization settings → Connectors. Then each person clicks Connect under Customize → Connectors.
  • Connectors follow your Claude account to the desktop and mobile apps.

Gemini (gemini app on the web, and Gemini CLI)

  1. In the Gemini app on the web, open Settings → Connected Apps. Open Gemini
  2. Under Custom apps, click Add a custom app and paste your connection link as the MCP server URL.
  3. Earth Care Network opens: enter your email, type the 6-digit code, choose where to start, tick Read and Draft and edit, then Approve.
  4. In a chat, ask: Help me get my enterprise on Earth Care Network.

Gemini CLI (terminal). Add the server, then start Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth earth-care-network and sign in in your browser. /mcp lists its tools.

gemini mcp add --transport http earth-care-network https://www.earthcare.network/mcp

Without a browser (scripts). Create a key under Settings → Developers, then:

gemini mcp add --transport http earth-care-network https://www.earthcare.network/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"
  • Custom apps in the Gemini app need a personal Google Account (not a work or school one), Keep Activity on, and English; Google offers them in the US first.
  • You add the app on the web. After that it works in the Gemini phone app too.

Help: Gemini Apps Help: connect custom apps

Claude Code (terminal)

  1. In Earth Care Network, open Settings → Developers and click Create key. Copy it now; we show it once.

  2. Run:

    claude mcp add --transport http earth-care-network https://www.earthcare.network/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"

  3. Start Claude Code and ask: Help me get my enterprise on Earth Care Network.

Add the skills (optional). They teach Claude Code our workflows, and hand every publish, send and payment back to you.

/plugin marketplace add Earth-Care-Network/profit-with-purpose-skills

/plugin install profit-with-purpose@earth-care-network

Sign in with your browser instead. Leave out the header, then run /mcp, choose earth-care-network and sign in. If sign-in fails after a restart, use the key.

claude mcp add --transport http earth-care-network https://www.earthcare.network/mcp
  • A key acts as you. Keep it out of code and shared files.

Cursor (desktop)

  1. In Earth Care Network, open Settings → Developers and click Create key. Copy it now; we show it once.

  2. In Cursor, open Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server, or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

    { "mcpServers": { "earth-care-network": { "url": "https://www.earthcare.network/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_KEY" } } } }

  3. Reopen MCP settings. Earth Care Network should show green with its tools.

  • Don't commit a project's .cursor/mcp.json with a real key in it.

Other apps (any MCP client)

  1. Any app that accepts a remote MCP server with OAuth can use your connection link.
  2. Grok: grok.com → Connectors → New Connector → Custom, paste the link, sign in.
  3. Your own agent or script: use a key from Settings → Developers as a Bearer header. Technical reference · Full tool list

3. Sign in. A window opens on earthcare.network. They enter the email they use for ECN and the code we send. Tell them to tick Read and Draft and edit. If they have no account, send them to https://www.earthcare.network/start and continue when they're back.

4. Start. Call enterprises, then get_workspace_journey. In two sentences, tell them which enterprise you're in and where they are. Offer three first tasks from: draft a journal post, add a lead and a follow-up, build a sign-up form, suggest a brand kit, draft a newsletter, search the directory.

5. Working rules.

  • When they have more than one enterprise, pass business_slug on every call.
  • What you write is a draft and is shown as Seeded. Never say it was published.
  • Publishing, sending and payments return a link. Give it to them exactly as written.
  • Workspace edits (contacts, notes, brand colours) apply at once, so say what you'll change before you change it.
  • If a tool returns an error, say what happened in one sentence and give the next step.
